It's spring, can I have some romance please?
Well, in music anything's possible:
Gino Paoli - Vivere Ancora
I've been watching My Brilliant Friend and it's so good. Can't think of any other adaptation of a book that manages to get every character just as I imagined them while reading the books – or even better! There is a montage in episode 6 of season 2 of a doomed love affair between the two most beautiful characters and this song plays and it is peak romance.
John Zorn - Patience
Waiting. Waiting. Little moments trickle past.
Julie Byrne - Portrait of a Clear Day
I get so nostalgic for you sometimes
What a devastating line in all its blunt simplicity.
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Far From Me
Ah, memories of the sweet pain of long distance relationships back when!Van Morrison - Madame George
No other album epitomizes the nostalgia for a world lost like Astral Weeks. There is something shimmering and hazy over every tune, like a scent in the air that suddenly transports you back years. And when those strings pick up the melodic crescendo in the end I can't help it if my eyes get a bit hazy too...
